It was a joke for a while that Fedor and Finkelstein we’re running other promotions into the ground because of their demands. Seems like everywhere he signed it was shortly after that the promotion folded
Bellator somehow survived it
I mean could be because Bellator did sign his buddies and now one is champion and another is on his way to possibly being one.
Well to be fair, Pride was around 10 years and shut down due to Yakuzi shit. Strikeforce was bought by UFC because they were smokin hot at the time and had ALOT of great fighters. Dana didnt like the HW GP gettin all the talk over UFC at that time and bought em out. Affliction was doomed to to fail for shelling out money like they did. Affliction Banned payd out $3.3 million for fighter for one event. Sylvia got $800,000 to fight fedor, Fedor got less than half that. Rings died out after Pride came along. And as you said, Bellator still here. M1 Global still going strong just before Covid. Rizin still here. So Fedor didnt really kill all promotions he was in.
